Actions in regards to US policy on Syria

A coalition of peace groups in the USA (called International Action Center) have proposed these actions in regard to US policy on Syria:

- An immediate end to the U.S. policy of forced regime change in Syria and full recognition and compliance by the U.S., NATO and their allies with principles of international law and the U.N. Charter, including respect for the independence and territorial integrity of Syria.

- An immediate end to all foreign aggression against Syria, and serious efforts toward a political resolution to the war.

- An immediate end to all military, financial, logistical and intelligence support by the U.S., NATO and their regional allies to all foreign mercenaries and extremists in the Middle East region.

- An immediate end to economic sanctions against Syria. Massive international aid for displaced people within Syria and Syrian refugees abroad.

++++++++++++

They have also done some protests at Hillary Clinton’s NYC office to promote these policy demands. Clinton will be the next US president, and she is very, very dangerous. She has never met a war action she did not support or want to expand. And in Syria, she is supporting “a no fly zone” even though she has admitted that it would kill a lot of people. Even worse, shooting down Russian planes could mean a shooting war between the US and Russia, both of whom have nuclear weapons.

I am expecting much more war in the next four years, unfortunately. I will always be protesting more wars and killings from the US government and politicians.
